      The mongosh CLI should call net.setDefaultAutoSelectFamily(true) during setup (run.ts), if available, to accommodate for the fact that the homebrew team upgraded mongosh to Node.js 19+ without informing us, leading to connectivity issues when connecting to localhost on systems where that resolves to ::1 before 127.0.0.1.

      As a workaround, users can specify NODE_OPTIONS=--enable-network-family-autoselection in their environment variables for mongosh sessions.
